    I was just looking it up. Santana (2004-2008) 35.6.bWAR, 29.8 fWAR Brown (1996-2000) 36.7 bWAR, 36.9 fWAR Somehow Brown escaped that stretch without a single Cy Young award (Santana won twice during his.)

    Fruity McLoom?

    Arias is 20 years old with 79 at bats in above A-ball. While the Sox are very likely excited about his future, I’d be shocked if he was already penciled in to replace Story…

    And yet they still exclude Tommy John…

    There is some irony in that we got our fillers from the only place that needed them more…

    Incorrect. Hunter was not on the A’s in 1975. But he did play in 6 World Series in a 7 year stretch and won rings in 5 of them. Good things happen when you keep teaming up with Mr. October, I suppose…

    Because they won’t bump Story for him?
  9. notin
    Why? Did the Sox nor acquire him? He was part of that Colorado 2b mess…

    Kevin Brown from 1996 to 2000 might be even better…

    And yet Catfish Hunter got into the Hall of Fame…

    I’ll trade any outfielder I damn well please and neither you nor anyone else can stop me!
  13. notin
    Absolutely. I think having Judge, Stanton, Grisham, Bellinger, Dominguez, Rice and Goldschmidt and only 3 OF, 1b and DH places to play them all is what limited the 2025 Yankees to only 94 wins.

    I assumed an outfielder (Duran, specifically) would be dealt for a 2b/3b…

    Whats even funnier is we took Colorado’s 2b this past offseason as a potential fix in Boston…

    Greinke strikes me as one of the more underrated pitchers of recent years….

    Well, the Sox recent track record with Rule 5 picks does suggest they were due for a miss…

    Thank you for that update…

    I might be wrong but i don’t think Watson can be DFAd. I think he just gets returned. There are no options for his assignment, so a DFA might not be appropriate…

    I know I’m going to take some flak, but I think Nolan Ryan has to be among the most overrated pitchers in MLB history. I’ve talked to plenty of folks who consider him the GOAT based on his strikeouts and career no hitters. But they always forget he is also the all time leader in BB, and his career WAR is less than pitchers no one ever puts in the GOAT discussion, like Phil Niekro, Gaylord Perry and Bett Blyleven, despite all of them pitching fewer seasons. Don’t get me wrong - Ryan is a more than deserving Hall of Famer. But best of all time? I wouldn’t put him in the top ten. Maybe top 20?

    Maybe Hurst in San Diego, where he was a little better…
